Patent number: 9363887Abstract: An apparatus for performing communication control includes a control module implemented with at least one integrated circuit (IC) whose package includes a plurality of sets of terminals, each set of the plurality of sets of terminals corresponding to one of a plurality of sub-modules of the control module, and within the sets of terminals, a set of terminals corresponding to a specific sub-module of the sub-modules include a power-input terminal arranged to input power from outside the control module. For example, on a printed circuit board (PCB) of the apparatus, arrangement of some modules is similar to that of some contact pads associated to the sets of terminals. In another example, the control module includes a power distribution system including at least one power distribution wire. In another example, a PCB within the apparatus includes at least one signal transmission wire and at least one set of co-plane ground wires.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2014Date of Patent: June 7, 2016Assignee: MEDIATEK INC.Inventors: Yu-Te Lin, Hsiao-Tung Lin

Patent number: 8989810Abstract: An embodiment of the invention provides a method to be performed by a wireless communications device. The wireless communications device includes at least a first wireless module and a second wireless module. According to the method, the wireless communications device obtains a quality indicator of the first wireless module. Then, the wireless communications device examines the quality indicator to determine whether to restrain a transmission power of the second wireless module for the first wireless module.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2012Date of Patent: March 24, 2015Assignee: Mediatek Inc.Inventors: En-Chieh Hsia, Hsiao-Tung Lin, Chu-Wei Lo
